A number of large-scale transformations have shaped the economy,
polity and society of India over the past quarter century. This
book provides a detailed account of three that are of particular
importance: the advent of liberal economic reform, the ascendance
of Hindu cultural nationalism, and the empowerment of historically
subordinate classes through popular democratic mobilizations.
Filling a gap in existing literature, the book goes beyond looking
at the transformations in isolation, managing to: * Explain the
empirical linkages between these three phenomena * Provide an
account that integrates the insights of separate disciplinary
perspectives * Explain their distinct but possibly related causes
and the likely consequences of these central transformations taken
together By seeking to explain the causal relationships between
these central transformations through a coordinated conversation
across different disciplines, the dynamics of India's new political
economy are captured. Chapters focus on the political, economic and
social aspects of India in their current and historical context.
The contributors use new empirical research to discuss how India's
multidimensional story of economic growth, social welfare and
democratic deepening is likely to develop. This is an essential
text for students and researchers of India's political economy and
the growth economies of Asia.
